Sometimes, if an electrocardiogram comes back normal, doctors will use stress tests to detect heart disease.
Another test option is echocardiography, which uses sound waves to generate images of the heart.
Computerized tomography (CT) scans are used to show that heart disease is not present and that the coronary arteries are normal.
Coronary angiography via cardiac catheterization is considered the "gold standard" of heart disease tests.
Heart disease treatment is different for everyone.
For some patients with heart disease, medications may be necessary
When medications aren't enough, sometimes invasive procedures are used to help treat heart disease.
Heart disease is a highly preventable and reversible disease. A healthy diet is a major factor in controlling heart disease
Other lifestyle changes that can be made to help prevent heart disease include drinking alcohol in moderation and quitting smoking.
Exercise, controlling high blood pressure and diabetes, and taking daily aspirin are more ways to reduce your chances of developing heart disease.
